Jalousie/Le Cid/Il Guaranyla Sorella/Espana Cani/Brazilian Dance/Zacatesas/Jamaican Rhumba/Danze Pienmontesi
The Boston Pops Orchestra, conducted since 1930 by Arthur Fielder, enjoyed their highest US album chart placing with the Latin influenced collection Jalousie. (US:5)
"Jalousie was definitely one of Fiedler's finest works. The album theme Jalousie, based on a tango composed by Gade, is a work of art."
"I immediately realized Fiedler's Boston Pops version of this great classic Jalousie was absolutely the very best I have ever heard. This great album is complemented by other gorgeous classics."
"Maestro Arthur Fiedler will always be remembered by music fans as Mr. Boston Pops. I very highly recommend it. Do not miss this one."
"The title tune of Jalousie was originally recorded by Fiedler in the 1930s and became the first orchestral disc to sell over a million copies. It is a vivid tune with a fine arrangement and superb playing."
"The rest of the Jalousie LP is given over to light classics that are not often heard, with the exception of Arthur Benjamin's Jamaican Rhumba, and which fully deserve resuscitation."
